Zone Alarm

After not being able to access the Internet Movie Data Base, Zone Alarm, Noton's Live Update, Windows Update, both my wife's and daughters email sites I am now able to. Thanks to the fact that I uninstalled Zone Alarm. I reinstalled however and the previously troublesome sites still load successfully but it was annoying the hell out of me not being able to load them prior to uninstalling ZA.

Anyone else have similar problems? Is there a better Firewall or atleast one that doesn't cause the sort of problems I experienced?

I have never had any problems with ZA or ZAP, but I have heard of others having problems like you had ditch.

When you removed ZA did you follow the instructions from their site? Or did you just use the "add/remove" feature in Windows?

If you didn't remove it according to their site, you may have problems again in the future as this seems to be one of the largest reasons for corrupt ZA installs. If the problem arises again, make sure to un-install per Zone Lab's instructions and then reinstall.

Mmmm. Just used Add / Remove. I'll be on the lookout for a possible repeat of the problems then. Thanks for the tip.
